Picardie Travel Forum

How much on average are transfers from charles de gaulle aiport to La croix du pont(keycamp)

Hi,

My wife and I are looking for accommodation in the Picardie area from 19.10.2008 - 22.11.2008.

We require an internet connection where we can connect direct into a router as my wife will have to work and also for accommodation to be pet friendly as we have a small dog (doesn't cast hair).

We are actually travelling from Spain to return to Scotland but want to spend 5 weeks in France before heading for the tunnel so anywhere within a few hours drive would be fine.

If anyone could be of any help we would be very grateful.

Regards

Hi! Myself, hubby and 4 kids are travelling across France via Amiens in July of this year, and we would like to find a reasonably priced hotel within walking distance of a hypermarche/shopping centre. (Preferably a Premiere Classe hotel etc..)Any ideas?
We found the "centre commerciale carrefour" (Avenue de l'Europe) with a Kyriad hotel nearby, but we're not sure if this area has many amenities.
We would appreciate any comments.
Thanks.

Dear VTers,

We are driving up from Spain and want to stay in a nice french town about 2 - 2.5 hrs away from Calais (getting channeltunnel next morning) where we can stop for the night for a nice meal and hotel. As we're coming from Bordeaux, anything west of Paris will be suitable. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated as i dont know the area at all.

Many thanks

Hello,

I am planning a trip in Picardie, flying to and from Beauvais Airport. I was interested whether there are any useful train passes for the region. Purchasing a general France Railpass is probably not worth for such a small region. I am interested to see Amiens, Loan, Compiegne, and probably some other smaller places in the region. Or maybe point-to-point tickets will turn out to be better?

Best,
Venelin

Hi All,

Not sure if you can help me or not.
My wife & I will be visiting Amiens in April 2008 and driving from there to
Lille, stopping at a couple of WW1 cemetaries to visit graves of grandparents
who were killed in France in 1917.

We will be leaving from Paris and were intending to take the fast Train from the
Airport to Haute Picardie station.

Question is, is there reliable transport from the station into Amiens or would
you suggest train from Paris to Amiens itself?

cheers

Je vais rester là tout l'été et c'est super si je pourrais passer le temps avec quelqun de mon âge. Contacte-moi si tu est intéressé!!! :) (Désolé pour mon mauvais Francais)

Hello,I will be staying in the village of Flesselles just outsie Amiens for a week in March. I was wandering if there is a bus service into Amiens from Flesselles and if so how can I obtain a timetable.

My family and I had our first Holiday if France this year and are looking to go again next year. By far the cheapest ferry crossing with our car was to Calais, however we stayed near Dinard and so had a 5 hour road journey (on top of the 5 hours it took us to get to Dover from manchester).
The countryside and scenery where we stayed was fantastic bu were wondwring if any one new of areas nearer to Calais (maybe 2-3 hrs drive) that would equal the beauty of Brittany.
Idealy a nearby beach would be good, but as we will have our car with us we could make a beach trip a "day out" and travel maybe an hour for where we choose to stay.
We prefer rural locations.
Thanks in advance for your help

Kind Regards

Found some info about this and wondered if anyone had been there at this time? We hope to visit in the summer during our holiday, but have thought about going in December to see the Christmas village. Thanks

I'm doing a school project on Pierrefonds, and I was wondering if anyone had any information that would be helpful to me. If anyone has any maps, good pictures, or brochures, that would be great. If anyone wants to send me anything like a map or brochure via snail-mail, please e-mail me at beachkitten203@yahoo.com and I will give you my home address for you to send it to. Thanks!

We are a group of 7 adults and 6 children and are traveling to the somme in April for 8 nights from the 12 to the 20th.

Any advice or recommendations where a group like ours could stay?

Hello beautiful world.
In a few weeks time I will be driving from Amsterdam to Spain, and I would like to pause in Amiens to see the cathedral. What possibility exists for safe overnight parking in the center of Amiens, assuming that whatever budget hotel we stay in doesn't have any?
Any recommendations for centrally located hotels under 80 Euros?
Thanx. Cheers.
